ETA: This means that only 3% of the variation in LSAT scores can be explained by the variation in GPAs. Y'all suck.

So we really are special snowflakes???

Or everyone is WILDLY incorrect about their LSAT scores.

True, I'm way more interested in how far off everyone was

Presumably the data this site has about the GPA/LSAT of hundreds of applicants would give a better idea of the true correlation between the two. At which point we could overlay that regression onto our graph and circle the people who are farthest off average.
